| 36 | +# Core Development Principles 🚀 |
| 37 | +core: |
| 38 | + # Readability |
| 39 | + - Readability is the highest priority |
| 40 | + - Keep code simple and explicit |
| 41 | + - Prefer flat over nested structures |
| 42 | + - Write self-documenting code |
| 43 | + - Use comments to explain why, not what |
| 44 | + - Preserve existing comments and div IDs |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | + # File Organization |
| 47 | + - Prefer single files to maximize AI context |
| 48 | + - Split files only when: |
| 49 | + - Code is reusable across features |
| 50 | + - Logic needs independent unit testing |
| 51 | + - Structure files: types, constants, helpers, main logic, exports |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | + # Naming Conventions |
| 54 | + - Names should reveal intent and provide context |
| 55 | + - Use verb prefixes for booleans (is, has, should) |
| 56 | + - Use verb prefixes for functions (get, set, update) |
| 57 | + - Use PascalCase for components |
| 58 | + - Use camelCase for functions/variables |
| 59 | + - Use UPPER_SNAKE_CASE for constants |
